Recipe Introduction


You could 'upscale' these and make them with puff pastry. They are very easy and tasty. Make sure your onions are minced VERY fine. And use unflavored dental floss to slice, much easier! UPDATE: For New Year's Eve 2010 I tried using puff pastry instead of the Crescent Roll dough. I also brushed the cut pastries with egg wash and sprinkled with poppy seeds. These were really good, but I think that you could double the bacon and they'd be better still!



List of Ingredients




1 (8 oz.) can refrigerated Crescent dinner rolls
1 (3 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
2 T. finely chopped onion (or shallot)
1 t. milk
5 slices bacon, crisply cooked, drained and finely crumbled
1 T. freshly grated Parmesan cheese


Recipe



Heat oven to 375 degrees. Separate dough into 4 rectangles; firmly press perforations to seal. In a small bowl, combine cream cheese, onion and milk; beat until well blended.

Spread about 2 T. cream cheese mixture evenly over each rectangle. Sprinkle each with bacon. Roll up, starting at longest side; pinch edges to seal. Cut each roll into 8 slices. Place on parchment paper lined cooky sheet. Sprinkle with cheese.

Bake for 12 - 15 minutes or until golden brown. Serve warm. Store in refrigerator.
